Who doesn't love a good stuffed pepper recipe? They're simple to make with affordable ingredients, and they come together with just a little bit of prep work. They're also easy to make with mix and match ingredients for easy, 'cleaning out the fridge' nights. You don't have to make an involved dish for a satisfying dinner when it comes to stuffed peppers, incorporating everything into one neatly packaged vessel for consumption.

We also love the idea of making them in the Instant Pot, all of the flavors perfectly melding together, evenly cooked all the way throughout. There are quite a few different options and techniques, so we're sharing our favorite Instant Pot stuffed peppers.
